Retreats & Rentals
The Betsy-Jeff Penn 4H Educational
Center provides an ideal retreat space for those groups
who are seeking a natural respite from the world.
Retreats may be centered around religious, familial,
corporate or professional gatherings.
Modern facilities include two
classrooms spaces, a large multipurpose meeting room, a
spacious recreation hall, and all
the necessary accoutrements, from tables and chairs to
audio-visual equipment.
Eight heated cabins, with modest, community sleeping
spaces, and adequate bathroom space each accommodate up
to 24 individuals, for a grand total of
192 beds on site.
Family-style meals in the dining hall assist in creating
community amongst retreat-goers. More importantly,
Penn's kitchen staff will satisfy the culinary desires
of the group, allowing participants to carry on their
own programs and business without concerns for such
logistical details.
For more information or for
pricing details, please contact the Center Director:

A
campus map
and
floor plans
may also help in planning your event.
Of course, some groups want to add
a bit of Penn's own programming into their visit.
Most often this is some version of the
Soaring Thru Spaces
program, including the
teambuilding, high ropes and character development
challenges. While most of our efforts in this
program are spent with middle school and high school
students, it has also been quite successful over the
years with numerous collegiate groups and corporate
groups.
